Measles Resurgence in the U.S. Reaches 33-Year High Amid Vaccine Hesitancy

This is not about "big pharma". It is a direct question, which you refuse to answer. You have no formal training, no education, no clinical experience and have not successfully treated one patient and you present yourself as an expert and possessing insight and knowledge.

 

Who or what is big  pharma and what does this imagined entity have to do with a measles epidemic?

The highest rate of infection for the current North America measles epidemic is in Alberta, Canada. Almost all of the people who are becoming infected with measles and suffering complications are the unvaccinated. How is "Big Pharma" causing harm when it is the unvaccinated who are  the ones with the medical complications?

 

You say that "Big Pharma" is being made rich. How is that being done? Show us the  math, because, you are pushing false information again.  The data does not support your claim.

Most children in canada have access to a measles vaccine at no direct cost to the patient.

The government is purchasing the measles vaccine under mass procurement orders, and it is typically CAD$5 or less per dose. The numbers do not support your claim.

- Alberta has approx. 305,000 children aged 1-5. This means that about 61,000 children in any given year are eligible for the vaccine.

- Only 68% of eligible children are fully vaccinated against measles. That's 41,480  children

- The value of the vaccines sold is approx $414,800. Round it up to $500,000

- The vaccine is sold at cost plus a small profit, perhaps 10%

 

Now do tell us how "Big Pharma" is making money off of the  vaccine . How is the approx. $50,000 a big profit?

Wow! Strong words there Sir. Big words. You deserve a reply.

 

''You have no formal training, no education, no clinical experience and have not successfully treated one patient and you present yourself as an expert and possessing insight and knowledge.''

 

Dear me! I shouldn't have confided in that bar girl all those years ago. She couldn't keep a secret. But I did treat her. And she is all the better for it.

 

''Who or what is big  pharma and what does this imagined entity have to do with a measles epidemic?''

 

You really don't know Sir?! It's Big Pharma's second biggest earner. Yes vaccines. Have to keep the kettle boiling.

 

''Almost all of the people who are becoming infected with measles and suffering complications are the unvaccinated.''

 

Our bodies have a special ability to self-heal. The symptoms of 'measles' are many and varied. The 'measles' in one area might have nothing to do with  the 'measles' in another. The symptoms of 'measles' are well documented and range across; fever, cough, skin blisters, fatigue, stomach problems;;; and more. They are all the body getting itself back to normal. They are the cure. Cure from what; you might ask. A variety of reasons (too big for this thread), but there are generally two - although in some parts of the world that might be four. But, in the west, the main causes are poor diet over a prolonged period and toxicity. Toxicity is a book-size subject in itself; but some are local environment issues, some are chemicals we use, and think are safe. Others include packaging, food colouration, food preservatives etc. Bad air. Also EMFs.

 

Anyone reading my posts down the years, will know my views on health are not mainstream. They are rooted in nature. For it is nature that we must turn to. And the white-coats who think they can better it, change it, and tinker with it for the betterment of mankind are ludicrous fools. With a very comfortable living standard it should be noted.

 

Nature has the answers we seek.

Well try this; find a cat and tell it that he can't see it, can't hear it, can't smell it, cant touch it and it don't exist but he must be very afraid. The cat will laugh at you.

 

This is your stance on viruses.

I love thought experiments....   

Do you have a cat that laughs?  I guess even the cat knows you're such a silly human.

 

Here's an analogy to yours.

Find a human even dumber than you and tell him that even though he can't see it, can't hear it, can't smell it, can't touch it but there's something in the wire that will kill him.  Then hand him two bare wires connected to the grid and carefully observe his reaction.

 

PS.... don't forget this is only intended as a thought experiment.  Oh yeah.... and don't forget to wear a white lab coat.

We are nothing without nature. Nature is us. And we are nature. 

Get yourself bitten by a rabid cat or dog, and see how far nature gets you.

 

Sorry, I forgot. Rabies is a virus, and you deny their existence.

 

OTOH, it does attack the brain, so maybe your chances are better than most.

Of course, anything that can get past any one of our three main defences can potentially be dangerous. However rabies, is not cause by a virus. What is in the saliva of a rabid animal? I sense a new topic coming soon on that. There it can be fully explained.

Shouldn't they just be pressing for Measles vaccine?

But no, every opportunity to give three when one would do the job!

Yes drug profits. Con artists.

You still are unable to provide a coherent and truthful answer. The facts are;

 

1. You have no education, no formal training and no clinical  experience in the management and treatment of an infectious disease. You know nothing and are ignorant of the subject matter.

 

2.  You cannot  answer what Big Pharma is and what its relation to the measles crisis in North America is.  You continue to lie in respect to the profit motive. What are  "Big Pharma's" profits from the measles vaccines? I provided a  simple financial summary to show that there is little profit on general vaccines. In most jurisdictions, the government has set the  cost and profit parameters. The typical essential vaccine procurement contract is a cost+  format. Your claim that   the pharmaceutical industry is making windfall profits from measles is unsubstantiated.

 

3. Measles infections are expensive. The USA doesn't collect and publish comprehensive data on the infections now, but Alberta still does and the data is  concerning. As of July 5,

Diagnosed cases - 1,214

Hospitalizations - 102

ICU Admissions - 15

 

The provincial taxpayers are picking up the costs for the idiots who refused to be vaccinated against a preventable  infection. Obviously the infected people did not get the memo that they can heal themselves because so many are in hospital.

 

Your opinions are not rooted in nature. On the contrary, they are the very opposite, and are derived from idiotic  conspiracy websites and promoters of sham treatments and claims.  None of what you write has any scientific basis and is nothing but lies and  made up "science". Yours is not an opinion. Rather it is the  dissemination of intentionally false and misleading positions that harm society.

Surely for you to make the claim that there are profits you  must know what they are.

What are the drug profits from the measles vaccines that you are referring too. Surely, you know what the profits are if you make that claim. Tell us what they are.

 

Sometimes vaccines are sold at a financial loss. The polio vaccine when it was first rolled out was not profitable. 

And as I have stated,  the measles vaccine in most of the world that is used in public health, is procured on a cost+ basis.   In the USA which has the some of the highest costs of drugs and vaccines, the 2025 CDC price list for a MMR 10 dose, single use pack is US $26.345. or $2.6345 per dose. This is cost +. The profit  is usually 10%, so, $0.26345 per dose.  Tell us how  a profit margin of 26 cents is making the measles vaccine manufacturers rich .

Two typical mindless sycophant's response aided and abetted by severe siloing and laziness.  A couple of minutes reading and you would at least have the opportunity to understand why the three vaccines are administered together....   sad that such low information constituents are given a vote.

I don't vote, there are never any suitable candidates, and voting for the least worst just perpetuates the situation.

Please explain the logic of how declining to vote stops the continued election of poor candidates?

 

I think you merely strung together words that illustrate your feelings but make no sense.

Do you really think the list price is the actual amount of money changing hands?  What about government subsidies, incentives and bonuses?

Ok what about these subsidies, incentives and bonuses? You are saying that they are disbursed  for the measles vaccine. Please tell us what these amounts are, and who is paying them and when?

Surely, you have the information, because you are making the claim.
